I quit my job. I was working part-time retail but I had worked for the company for years and I quit. I had just gotten out of a two-year school. I timed it, I really did plan it out. We put our 7 inches out and then we'd have our record out right when I got out of school. I planned it for our record to come out right as we got out of school, right as summer hit, we get on the road and tour. We knew we had to record it by this date.

I think anyone who loves music is picky about it.

Everything I write, and I write all the time for mental stability, I think most of it comes from fixation, literally just being depressed, fixating on things, and bizarre thoughts come from fixation. It's all personal experiences and feeling like you're in the most miserable place in the most miserable time and that's basically it.

"There may have been unspoken goals, we really just didn't care too much though. I mean, we care about our band, but we didn't care too much about anything. We wanted to say '@#$%& everything,' let's do this now. We're young, we hate our lives, we owe a lot of money to bill collectors, why not owe more?

"I have played in bands since I was a kid. The appeal of hardcore to me is that I am the same as a kid singing along to my band. There is no separation between a hardcore band and the crowd. There is no reason why any kid should feel strange talking to anybody in a hardcore band. It sounds so corny to say, but we are all the same,"
